ubonjoe Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 It is $35 US or 1500 baht. The 1500 baht has been the same for many years. It seems you applied outside normal working hours and they charged you 40 baht ($1 US) for overtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldera Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 The official USD amount depends on the nationality of the applicant. $30 to $42, as far as I remember. Make sure that you have pristine banknotes, preferably the exact amount. I've never had a problem with them accepting my USD, but YMMV. I either just hand over dollars right away, or ask (politely) if I can pay in dollars in case they ask for Thai baht. They tend to quote a fixed rip-off amount in THB, for as long as I remember. If you pay in THB, it's always more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
